Abstract:
Blood samples from 577 couples and their 657 offspring of Bengali caste group derivation were used to study interactions between ABO blood groups and haptoglobin (HP) systems. There was no significant sex difference in HP distribution among the parents. Significantly higher incidences of HP*1 allele were noted in the offspring of ABO-incompatible parental combinations in comparison with those in the offspring of ABO-compatible parents.
